I have heard different things about running Co2. One thing is that running the Co2 up until harvest decreases the quality of the medicine. But another source says to crank up the Co2 at the end to increase the bud size. Anyone out there have experience with this?

CO2 wont reduce your quality whatsoever. run it all the way through to get mabey 20-30% increase in yeild.

run it all the way threw.

I did see a video on you tube by advanced nutrients and they did say that the plant uses the most co2 at the beggining of flowering. I also read the same thing in a urban garden mag. either way both things I read the growers still ran co2 till the end, just lowered it a bit after the first few weeks or so. (you might want to research further, I have only read these things not experienced them)
either way I have never heard co2 would decrease yield

i just added Co2 to my room with a propane burner model because i was heating the room and thought why not add the heat with co2...and i liked what i saw for the short time i was there and have received good reports on the progress...but next flower run will be the first one that i will do start to finish....i added my co2 about 4 weeks into the current flower cycle so i am anxious to see a full run!:D

i read somwhere that you should kick the co2 off for the last two weeks off flowering to increase flavor and aroma of the finished product. I just added co2 to my grow so we will see with the afgoo.
